Total Recall

Ooh.. I was once again convinced of the masterpiece of this film creation. Everything is perfect in this film: a very interesting storyline that touches on important social issues, a great cast, cool cinematography, venerable direction by Verhoeven, magnificent views of Mars, a nostalgic theme in the opening credits, and a generally excellent soundtrack (bravo, Jerry Goldsmith!). As a child, I always singled out the peak Arnie in this film, his imposing physical form and charisma, which he endowed with his character, who, by the way, looked completely different from his original book source. He's always been the main character for me, because Kamon is Arnie.. But over the years, after watching the film over a fairly long period of time, looking at it from a slightly different angle, you begin to understand who is really the king of the ball here. This is, of course, the awesome Michael Ironside in the image of the slightly unstable mercenary Richter, who will never stop at anything if you cross his path. It was truly brilliantly played, my honor. I wouldn't be surprised if he survived a fall from such a height, fitted steel prosthetics instead of severed limbs and continued to pursue Quaid in the sequel)) In general, I do not know why I write so much about a film that everyone already knows about.. Apparently, the strongest nostalgia got into the eye)

I watched this movie for the first time now.
Even looking at it through the prism of time, it seems that a lot of it is really well done and interesting. Especially the twists and turns of the plot. A multilevel and well-written and shown twist with memory is very good.
But a lot has been done and it is very simplified.
The memory plan, which could have gone completely wrong the way the governor wanted about 500 times, looks very strained. The lack of motivation to keep gg alive for the entire first half was also very confusing. And, of course, the appearance of the atmosphere of an entire planet in less than five minutes is a farce, which, obviously, can be considered an assumption for the sake of the drama of the moment and a happy ending.
Obviously, there is no point in waiting for a deep study from an action movie. And the more obvious is the influence of this work on modern culture. Therefore, it is simply illegal to give him less than 7/10, it seems to me.

"Darling, you're not going to hurt me, are you?" We're married.

(and shot her)

As a child, the moment with the eyes on Mars certainly caused some uncomfortable feeling)))

And the film is wonderful)

To remember everything is a classic fantasy thriller.
The plot is quite dynamic, and the special effects made by hand, and not on a computer, look convincing: landscapes of Mars, mutants, original equipment, and of course the "robotic head of a fat aunt".
The humor in some scenes is quite appropriate and does not bother.
The main theme (soundtrack) and the title design are unusual in themselves, and as soon as they begin, interest immediately wakes up.
The "action" here is truly brutal and without embellishment. Classics of the genre, which should be in the collection not only of Schwarzenegger fans.
A great film that is timeless and generational, with a very complex and exciting plot that still haunts fans — whether it was really or just a dream.

I thought I'd never seen the movie, but the moments with the three-pronged prostitute, the severed hands of one of the villains, the black traitor and the bulging eyes at the end reminded me that I came across it on TV a long time ago)

A masterpiece movie from childhood. They used to be able to shoot fiction. 👍👍

Wow, it turned out to be a good fantasy thriller! I really love the movies of the 90s, because they turn out to be unrealistically cool, all the films of that era are among my favorites. Literally everything is perfect here - magnificent
Arnold and the simply stunning Sharon Stone (how many times I'm dying of her beauty), the plot, graphics, and most importantly, everything is very addictive and well served to us. For that time, it was a bomb! I definitely advise all fans of this genre and these gorgeous actors!) 🤍

The plot of Doom 3 began much the same way.

Cool movie

I recently read an original story. The idea is completely different, of course, but the film is cool
